      Wouldn’t it also be greater than 1 for the same reason as OP? I think there are probably more babies in mothers than people missing testes.

          Not their own, no, but the average number of testicles in a mother’s body is greater than 0.

          But they have the testicles of their soon to be born sons.

          I would say whether it’s greater than 1 or lesser than 1 is inconclusive without accurate data .

          You would need to find out whether amount of men with removed testicles is greater than amount of women pregnant with a boy (after the average week when testicles appear). Also men to women ratio in global population needs to be accounted for.
